It welcomes its guests with four different themed buildings, two pools, vegetable and fruit gardens.
While the concepts of discovery, creation, development and sharing, which are at the core of the project, come to life in different ways under each building theme, the interdisciplinary communication and interaction is expressed both physically and symbolically with the coming together of these four different basic vibrations.
Bernadet, which we created by blending Berna's aesthetic preferences with the professional and personal values of our old and dear friends, is a project and space that has come to life with the architecture of Han Tümertekin, the interior architecture of Hakan Ezer, the works of Kirkor Sahakoğlu, and the hand labor and sweat of all the craftsmen who have devoted themselves to their profession. This collaboration, which draws its strength from the past, mutual love, respect and trust, harbors quality, humility, energy and peace under one roof with meticulous details.

The concept is reflected in the architecture, and the buildings are crowned with libraries in accordance with their own themes, while lounges with fireplaces make it possible to both internalize each building individually and to abstract from the common space at the same time. Spaces for sports, art, meditation, meetings and other activities are scattered throughout the basement and ground floors, while hotel rooms are located on the first floor of the buildings. With its indoor and outdoor sections, the restaurant and café bring Bernadet's holistic style to the table.
As we wander through the spaces filled with our own books and stories, it is impossible not to go on a journey of time that goes beyond the Aegean geography with its botanical diversity and ethnographic collections. Bernadet is not only a contemporary interpretation of Alaçatı architecture, but also a timeless space with its glass, ceramic, cube, stone, wood, subsoil and contemporary art collections spanning several millennia.
